Anna Bakacs, Daisy Belmore

Universal Studios, 1992

The blood is the life
Back in 1931, the gloves came off. American cinema firmly grasps full-fledged horror and all the shadows that surround it. This is such a beautifully shot B&W classic that paved the way for the genre. Watch The Count glide with commanding grace during his nocturnal ...

Neighbors

John Belushi, Kathryn Walker

Sony Pictures, 1996

John Belushi in a smart comedy
Forget Meet the Parents, Neighbors is where it's at. Why is this not on DVD? Tune into the Animal House 30th Anniversary on Biography until this movie starring Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi is released on DVD. Some special features would be a nice addition to this ...

Johnny Guitar

Joan Crawford, Sterling Hayden

Republic Pictures, 1995

best-western
This is the Original Brokeback Mountain...! With none other than Miss Joan Crawford, super-butch (or superbitch?) Mercedes McCambridge and all those sexy cowboys with their low-hanging, droopy... ...holsters, "Johnny Guitar" has become, overtime, an iconic reference in ...

Valley of the Dolls (Spec)

Barbara Parkins, Patty Duke

20th Century Fox, 1997

A True American Cinema Classic.
DOLLS!!! What may have been at the time of release "shocking" dialogue is why Valley of the Dolls will live in infamy. "Well Broad-way doesn't go for booozze and pills." Helen Larson tells Neeley O'Hara at the start of their catfight in the powder room. Great fun to ...

Yellow Submarine

The Beatles, Paul Angelis

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

The great animated Beatles classic on DVD!!! If you can find a copy!!!
What a shame,it seems that movie companies only release Beatle classics on a limited term!!! I'm sure that a 40th Anniversary Edition might easily be on the way but I don't know!!! I'm glad I bought a copy of it when it was in print,because it is no out of print and ...

Frankenweenie

Shelley Duvall, Daniel Stern

Walt Disney Video, 1994

A dog with nine lives
This "Frankenstein monster" film by Tim Burton is a perfect model of compact and compelling storytelling; it brilliantly distills into thirty minutes what normally takes two hours. Frankenweenie is about love, acceptance, and redemption, and it's got a good moral. It's ...

Island of Lost Souls

Charles Laughton, Richard Arlen

Universal Studios, 1997

Please please please
These are two of the greatest classic horror movies, as good as anything Universal put out besides The Mummy and Bride of Frankenstein. Each of these has been copied many times in later years, and every copy has been a pale shadow of these brilliant originals. I'd ...

Seconds (1966)

Rock Hudson, Salome Jens

Paramount, 2001

Ahead Of It's Time
This movie never received the recognition it deserved, as Rock Hudson never received the recognition he deserved for the phenomenal performance he gave as a middle aged man given a second chance to create the life he believes he wants. It's a Faustian tale that ...

Blade Runner - The Director's Cut

Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer

Warner Home Video, 1999

BLADE RUNNER-Excellent Science Fiction Film
Blade Runner was a five star movie that had an exceptionally good plot. It also featured astounding special effects which were amazing to see on the big screen. Much of this work was done with large scale models and fog machines that really helped to establish the ...

A Clockwork Orange

Warner Studios

A Masterpeice
Stanley Kubrick (R.I.P) does it all - cameras, lights, sound. He is a one man show. They should do more movies like that in the futer. Malcom McDowell is a genius. Four Oscar nominations. A brilliant peice of film making.

What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

Bette Davis, Joan Crawford

Warner Home Video, 2000

Misery
I'm glad this was in black and white because on the back of the dvd case it showed pictures from the movie in colour. I'm not sure if I would want to see Bette Davis's face in colour because she is butt-ugly in this. Joan Crawford looked kind of "ill" in this movie, ...

Dr Strangelove

Peter Sellers, George C. Scott

Sony Pictures, 1994

Truth within humor is always a scary thing...
In this day and age, during these times of political uncertainty, a black comedy such as `Dr. Strangelove' is a welcome distraction. It takes all of our fears about what our own society may come to and it throws it in our face with enough humor (scarily realistic ...

Low Down Dirty Shame

Michael Bofshever, John Capodice

Walt Disney Video, 1998

Entertaining
Wow - I loved Keenen in this role, and Jada was histarical! If you like action packed adventure and stuff blowing up, you will love this movie.

Easy Rider

Luana Anders, Luke Askew

Sony Pictures, 1999

Easy Rider
What a great movie! Easy Rider brought back some good memories of days gone by. I first saw this with my dad at a drive in theater.Easy Rider

Wacky World of Dr.Morgus

Sid Noel, Dan Barton

Ivy Classics Video, 1996

The Wacky World of Doctor Morgus
It was good to see Dr. Morgus on this film. I had seen the movie when it first premiered in New Orleans when I was a kid. I am an ardent fan of the Great Momus Alexander Morgus ever since I was a youngster. The film brought back found memories of old New Orleans and ...
